“The parish is likely to run out of money by March of next year,” says Kerr. “In terms of parish numbers, there are about 380 souls that go to Holy Mass on a Sunday, which is relatively low.”

In a letter to parishioners, St. Casimir administrator Fr. Karl Pung said the parish needs an additional $30,000 over and above its budgeted collections to remain viable to the end of its fiscal year next June.

In the meantime, Kerr says the diocese has made no decisions about St. Casimir’s future.
